I take your point about Spain and the car market, but that's where the comparison ends. Sainz won 26 rallies, was a double world champion and was still winning rallies in the early 2000s (Argentina, 2004 was his last victory). Sordo has won once in over 130 starts....Quote:

I like the bigger cars, and at least it doesn't all look the same. I don't think they will go for 3 door version for 2017 as they probably spent a lot of money developing current version and will want to build on that.
Let's see. I hope he can get a chance. For me he'd be a perfect candidate to do a year in an old spec WRC next season.Quote:
